Whats the best way to round in VBA Access?
My current method utilizes the Excel method
Excel.WorksheetFunction.Round(...
But I am l
To solve the problem of penny splits not adding up to the amount that they were originally split from, I created a user defined function.
Function PennySplitR(amount As Double, Optional splitRange As Variant, Optional index As Integer = 0, Optional n As Integer = 0, Optional flip As Boolean = False) As Double
' This Excel function takes either a range or an index to calculate how to "evenly" split up dollar amounts
' when each split amount must be in pennies. The amounts might vary by a penny but the total of all the
' splits will add up to the input amount.
' Splits a dollar amount up either over a range or by index
' Example for passing a range: set range $I$18:$K$21 to =PennySplitR($E$15,$I$18:$K$21) where $E$15 is the amount and $I$18:$K$21 is the range
' it is intended that the element calling this function will be in the range
' or to use an index and total items instead of a range: =PennySplitR($E$15,,index,N)
' The flip argument is to swap rows and columns in calculating the index for the element in the range.

Dim evenSplit As Double, spCols As Integer, spRows As Integer
If (index = 0 Or n = 0) Then
spRows = splitRange.Rows.count
spCols = splitRange.Columns.count
n = spCols * spRows
If (flip = False) Then
index = (Application.Caller.Row - splitRange.Cells.Row) * spCols + Application.Caller.Column - splitRange.Cells.Column + 1
Else
index = (Application.Caller.Column - splitRange.Cells.Column) * spRows + Application.Caller.Row - splitRange.Cells.Row + 1
End If
End If
If (n < 1) Then
PennySplitR = 0
Return
Else
evenSplit = amount / n
If (index = 1) Then
PennySplitR = Round(evenSplit, 2)
Else
PennySplitR = Round(evenSplit * index, 2) - Round(evenSplit * (index - 1), 2)
End If
End If
End Function
